Fund Raising

There are many ways to support Lafayette. There are opportunities to contribute and volunteer valuable time during our annual fundraisers. Throughout the entire year Lafayette can receive your support by shopping locally here in West Seattle, even online at Amazon.com. Please see the may opportunities below.

WALK-A-THON

Our biggest annual fundraiser which involves the students, teachers, families, and the community. Donation pledges are enhanced by many local and national companies with matching funds opportunities

SALLY FOSTER GIFT WRAP SALES

One of two annual fundraisers in the fall, though online purchases will be credited to Lafayette throughout the year.

AMAZON.COM

Amazon shoppers can support Lafayette by shopping Amazon via this link. Lafayette receives up to 10% of the purchase amount, every time they shop. Amazon must be entered via this link in order for Lafayette to receive the proceeds. The link can be bookmarked, added to favorites and sent to family and friends worldwide that want to support our school when shopping on Amazon.

Family & friends of Lafayette can register as well. The escrip program is not limited to Safeway, many local businesses participate.

PCC

5% of your grocery bill will go to Lafayette. Purchase a PCC Scrip Card just once, and then reload it whenever you're shopping at PCC, at the same time you're paying for your groceries. Lafayette automatically gets 5% of the dollar-amount loaded onto the scrip card. It's easy and takes just one extra step while checking out. The card never needs to carry a balance. Cards or key tags are available for a one time fee of $25. Forms are available in the office.

Metropolitan Market

Collect Metropolitan Market (formerly Admiral Thriftway) receipts and Lafayette will receive a 1% rebate after sales tax. Place these receipts into the large red box located in the lobby near the school office.

H&R Block

Lafayette PTA can earn $25 for each new client referred to H&R Block. To receive the program reward, new clients must mention Lafayette PTA to the H&R Block tax preparer at the time of service. Call (206)935-2163 today to make your appointment at 3717 California Ave SW, Seattle WA. Ask for Cheryl Jones Senior Tax Advisor 3 (Lafayette parent K-2)

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION

Collect the "Box Tops" coupons found on many food packages, probably even now in your cupboard (e.g., cereal boxes, Kleenex boxes, Ziploc bag boxes) and send them to school with your child or place in the container in the front office. Last year Lafayette made $355 from Box Tops and Metropolitan Market receipts combined!Learn more at boxtops4education.com. Deposit these box tops into the appropriate box located in the lobby near the school office.

Matching Funds

Did you know that many companies will match your donations to the PTA? Matching fund donations from your company are a benefit most of us forget to use. Most companies match your donation dollar for dollar. So for every dollar you give the PTA gets two. This can have a big impact on the PTA's ability to help provide resources to the school, teachers, and most importantly the children. If your company offers matching funds, please take the time to fill out the matching form from your company and bring it in to the PTA. Lafayette PTA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
